It’s been quite a long time since I set up my webcam (Kodak S101) but I was able to use both the cam and the microphone after some fiddling.

In your terminal, type: alsamixer and that will bring you to this window, where you can manipulate some of your settings by pressing F1 through F6.

Then from your Pi desktop go to Preferences/Audio Device Settings to reach this window, where you can see more audio info. I don’t recall exactly how I got it to function properly but through process of elimination it finally worked, and is still working to this day

@Mykle1 Ok, i bought an USB microphone. Did it default, but still module isn’t working with mic. I can record a sound and listen it.

Then, hopefully, someone else that uses that module will step in here and help you out

Your audio preferences should NOT look like this, if they do.
